Lately the inflow of POTD submissions has been very slow. In fact I think we've only had one submission in the past 2-3 days. That leaves the staff with a limited selection of pictures, some of which are... honestly, not so great. And as we all know, regular visitors here have high standards when it comes to the POTD and complain when pictures aren't up to p...
This just in - thanks to the keen eye of Teancum at Gametoast and Kotaku's near-instantaneous knowledge of gaming news, we have a real "first look" at Star Wars Battlefront III. To quote: The footage, we're told, was taken at an internal alpha meeting with Free Radical back in November. As you may know, Free Radical was dissolved recently as a company,...
Hey there, SWBFFilers! As promised, here are the results for the November/December Map Contest. We had lots of great maps, but we could only have one winner. But before we get to the winners, we'd like to publish the authors of each map. Here's a list of every submission and its author: Tatooine: Showdown, by Challenger33 Scapio, by MasterSaitek009...
Hey there, SWBFFilers! It's that time - all the votes are in! Or at least they had better be - because your time to vote is up. Lots of contest submissions were made, and from those submissions you guys have narrowed down the entries to three maps - a third place, second place, and first place. So keep an eye out! A newspost highlighting the winning...

Best of luck, of course, to those fourteen, but before we start anything, I want to explain a little how voting will work. We'r...
Hey SWBFFilers! Your friendly neighborhood reviewerman here with a quick blurb about the in-progress mapping contest. First of all, great job everyone who's entered so far! I know that many people's thoughts on hearing of the contest theme were "urban maps are hard!" However, from the entries I've seen, you guys certainly are making it look easy. I've...
Hey there SWBFFilers! Let's get down to the nitty-gritty. This past week, we had a poll to let you guys choose what the theme for our upcoming mapping contest would be. Far-and-away, the top choice was an "urban" setting. So our theme for the contest will be swamps! Just kidding, of course - "urban" will be our theme. But before we explain all that, le...
Hey there, SWBFFilers! You know what the best thing about competing is, in my opinion? Everyone has to try really hard, and you get to see the greatest effort put forth by everyone involved - competition simply brings out the best in everyone, in terms of results. It's in that idea that I'm pleased to announce the upcoming first Star Wars Battlefront F...
In recent weeks, I have noticed multiple SWBF Files applications showing up in the inbox for my E-Mail. SWBF Files is not recruiting at this time, and I will reject all applications sent before the recruitment drive. I am sorry if this is an inconvenience to anyone. However, when the next one does come, I will be considering applications. I do have one po...
